Why beggers are so common in India?


India is country counted in over populated and unemployed country. This has grown up the number of beggers in India. Lower class people earning very low wages and with no education are involved in this perticular work of begging. This people fail to earn the wages as per the needs and they lack to feed their families. So they send their children, woman’s and old age people for begging.


Whenever we go into any crowdy places we see woman with a little child asking for begg, small children’s with tored clothes and dirty face, old people with half covered body etc. There are people who don’t have any way to earn money, so they ask for begg. such as people who cannot see, who are handicapped etc.

They are not capable of doing work and they decide to begg. But people with proper condition also come up with begging. Among this few are due to the poverty and there many who don’t want to work and so they go for begging.


Another reason of increasing beggers is lack of education. People who are uneducated don’t have knowledge of any kind of things. so the main and common problem arrise due to lack of education is unwanted pregnancy. As they don’t have any knowledge of controlling births and unwanted pregnancies they go on increasing the number of children’s.

And at moment when they fail to feed the family members they go for begging. When they see good profits are coming from begging the whole family shifts into the profession of begging. This has increased the number of beggers in India.


Another reason of increasing beggers is we Indians itself. As whenever we see such people we start giving them money or any food or clothing material. Most commonly people give money to beggers. This makes them capable of continuing the begging.

Also there’s an mindset of Hindus that they distribute money and other livelihoods to poor people on some or the other occasions. This is another reason of increasing beggers in India.
